ive got everything else set up but i can figure out how to set up the servo

Having never needed to use a servo my best guess would be the same port as is used in FDM printing for a bed level sensor From what i can see it goes on AUx 1

One thing you have to remember is that it is drawing power from the arduino so be careful not to overload it !!!

not sure if that'll work and im too afraid to try cos its a metal gear servo aha

I think you need to do more research on servos and servo control in order to understand what it is you are doing. I would certainly recommend detaching the servo from your printer while you experiment.

don't people use shutters with nanodlp all the time?

There are 4 3-pin headers next to the reset switch that are for servos. Depending on your Marlin firmware and g-code command, it should be one of those. I am not at my machine right now, but I believe I used D5 (3rd connector from the left on this image).

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I got the M codes from the muve3D installation guide.
Shutter open:
M280 P2 S160
Shutter closed:
M280 P2 S10
The values control the angle, so you will need to test them to get the correct angles for open and closed.
